We were up fairly early this morning and headed up to the Mt Rainier Radio Control Society field near Yelm. We planned on spending the day flying, spend the night and go to their meeting Saturday.
One of the first things out was the gift from Mik, Michelle and James. It says "Making Memories one campsite at a time", we really like it so it will get a lot of use.
The traffic pattern to McCord was right over us this morning. There was a pair of C-17's going round and round the pattern. I was just about ready for the first flight when I heard them coming and I got this picture of the lead one. They sure look big when they are right over you.
This picture is just before my first flight of the day. There were four other club members there when we arrived. I knew one of them and had a good time meeting the others.
Vera took this picture of me during a later flight. It was a perfect day, warm with little or no wind.
She came down by where I was and got this picture of the Skylane as I was shooting touch and goes.
Later we took a walk up the hill to get a better cell signal so I could post a picture on Facebook.
It is a very nice setting there. We had the place to our selves most of the day.
Vera took this picture of Mt Rainier this afternoon. Her timing was great, she said a cloud drifted across just after she took the picture. She spent the day knitting, reading and watching the NASCAR truck race at Daytona and we watched more of it this evening. Michelle had given us the rest of one pizza from last night and we haven't had to do any cooking today.
